Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has congratulated the Pakistani nation, expatriate community
and the Muslims around the globe on the auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Adha.

In his message from the Egypt, Shaykh-ul-Islam said that Eid-ul-Adha taught
the faithful to include the exploited and less-privileged sections of society in
their happiness. He asked the Muslims to revive the spirit of brotherhood, which
once characterized the Islamic world to help their disadvantaged brethren in their
hour of trial and tribulation. He said that reining in the base desires was the
duty of each and every Muslim. The spirit of welfare sprang from this act, thereby
putting an end to the attitudes of intolerance and extremism.

“By following the Sunna (practice) of Hazrat Ibrahim (RA), one gets to know the
hardships and difficulties of the downtrodden sections of society. This spirit of
love and compassion, which is the core message of the festive occasion, motivates
people to help those in distress with utmost sincerity that paves the way for promotion
of positive values,” he stated.

Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri said that the act of sacrifice and
performance of Hajj gave a message of unity and oneness among the Muslims. He said
that there was a dire need of forging unity among their ranks to fight off the contemporary
challenges. He asked the people of Pakistan not to forget the millions affected
by floods and terrorism while celebrating Eid-ul-Adha.
